The temporary camp is located in a pile of ruins. The gray-white building ruins have become extremely fragile after being weathered. The ruins in this area were crushed into sand by the landing starship.

And it can be seen that the group of wanderers deliberately chose this place. It is accessible in all directions and there is no obstruction. If anything comes close to this place, it will be discovered.

However, these wanderers who are accustomed to being cautious probably never imagined that there is an irrational person like Long Jiu in this world. No matter how cautious they are, they cannot guard against her.

When Long Jiu came over generously, the leader of the wanderer group was talking to Dauraf, who had just gotten off the private starship.

Dauraf is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his forties, but his actual age is unknown.

This time he came to this deserted star and he was not alone. When he was talking to the leader of the wanderers, he was followed by a dozen men armed with weapons.

The leader of the wanderers is unexpectedly young. If you just look at his face, he is a young man in his mid-twenties, but he has a gangster air around him. Even when he is laughing and chatting with Dauraf, there is a trace of unconcealable anger in his eyes.

Yin bird of prey.

Long Jiu was standing a hundred meters away from them, and the monitor she wore on her epaulette clearly transmitted the picture here back to the aircraft.

Ge Yang's voice came from the pocket ear buckle worn in the ear, with a bit of surprise: "It's actually him?"

Long Jiu subconsciously wanted to ask who this 'he' was referring to.

Ge Yang knew that it was not convenient for Long Jiu to speak at this time, so he immediately continued on the other end: "The leader of the wanderers is an interstellar fugitive that the empire has been looking for in recent years. His name is Lone Wolf. This guy was arrested seven years ago

He was arrested for killing someone, but on the way to the space prison, he killed the escort officer and his crew, and robbed the escort starship and escaped."

"This guy is also a ruthless person. It is said that the male owner of the family he killed was once his boss, and he was the bodyguard hired by the boss. He was scolded by the boss for some trivial things, but he ended up killing the boss.

Not to mention killing, not even the other members of the boss’s family

No one was spared. Because the impact of this incident was so bad at the time, he was sentenced to life imprisonment after his arrest, but no one thought that this guy actually broke free from the electronic shackles on the way to the space prison and killed him.

There were twenty escort officers who escorted him at that time."

Long Jiu listened to Ge Yang's words and carefully looked at the leader of the lone wolf wanderers. He didn't know if it was because this man was particularly sensitive to eyesight, but he suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Long Jiu.

He came over, but because Long Jiu had a concealment spell on him, Lone Wolf didn't notice anything, so after a few hesitant glances, he withdrew his vigilant gaze.

Long Jiu was calm when he looked over, but it shocked Ge Yang who was looking at the surveillance screen. However, after seeing that Long Jiu was not discovered, Ge Yang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Don't worry about them for now.

, you go and find out where the hostages are being held, and by the way, find out how many people there are in this group."

Long Jiu nodded lightly when she heard the words, but in the middle of the nod, she remembered that Ge Yang was invisible. She could only give a very soft hum, then walked around the wanderers holding weapons, and touched into the room surrounded by them.

Several starships guarding the back.

The first thing Long Jiu checked was the hijacked small and medium-sized passenger starship. She avoided a few wanderers guarding the starship and walked on it quietly.

However, as soon as she entered the hatch, Long Jiu noticed something was wrong.

So quiet!

Although the passengers in the starship were abducted here, they should not be so quiet. Even if they were not allowed to talk, there should still be low cries made of fear.

However, there was no sound inside the starship, as if the starship was just an empty ship.

Long Jiu frowned, and she quickly dodged in and went straight to the cabin.

Sure enough, after the cabin door was opened, there was no one in the cabin.

Ge Yang's confused voice came from the ear button: "How come there is no one?"

Long Jiu said nothing, but sped up and began to search around.

Twenty minutes later, Long Jiu searched the entire starship from the inside out. There was not even a single person on the starship.

Ge Yang realized something was wrong and said in a deep voice: "Go and take a look at those merchant ships."

Long Jiu responded softly, jumped out from the guardrail outside the starship, and then quietly touched the merchant ship next to him.

When searching for merchant ships this time, Long Jiu's speed was faster than before. It only took about half an hour for her to search three large merchant ships. However, what made Long Jiu look ugly was that the three large merchant ships were searched.

All the cargo on the merchant ship was here, but she didn't find a single hostage.

Long Jiu stood on the deck of a merchant ship, looking at Lone Wolf and Dauraf's group not far below through the guardrail, and said in a deep voice: "Captain, something is not right. There are a total of six homeless gangs here.

Nineteen people, and there are also seventeen people on Dauraf's side. Apart from these people, there is no one else here."

"Where is it nearby?" Ge Yang asked in a calm voice.

Long Jiu shook her head. When she discovered that the hostages were not on the three merchant ships, she had already used her spiritual consciousness to look around. She was sure that except here, there was no living thing nearby.

If this group of wanderers wanted to hide those hostages, they would never be able to hide them very far away, so if there are none nearby, it means that the hostages are no longer in their hands.

But if the hostages are not in their hands, where are they?

Dauraf had just arrived, and he was watched by Long Jiu and others all the way here. He didn't have the time to transfer the hostages.

While Long Jiu and Ge Yang were wondering where the more than a thousand hostages were, there happened to be two large merchant ships preparing to cross the border at the security fortress of the Sixth Galaxy.

Since Commander Long Jihuai came to take charge of the Security Fortress, all alerts have been raised to the highest level. At the same time, all starships entering and exiting through the Security Fortress must be carefully inspected over and over again.

Although Long Jihuai is in charge of the Security Fortress, he will not personally come to guard the checkpoint. Today, the 21st Squadron of the Security Fortress Sentinel Regiment is guarding the checkpoint.

There are a total of thirty-five squadrons of the sentry regiment guarding the security fortress, each squadron has 500 soldiers, and they take turns in order every day.

The captain of the 21st Squadron was currently interrogating the owners of these two large merchant ships with a recorder. In fact, the captain did not usually do the interrogation work like this himself, but today's situation was a bit special, because he was being questioned.

The target is the owner of the garbage star --- Benjiko.

While taking notes, the squadron leader asked seemingly casually: "Which foreign nation is this batch of goods destined to?"

Although Benjiko is a well-known black businessman on the Long Family Army list, this guy has been doing business with the aliens in the outer star field for many years, so he will personally take two merchant ships to the outer star field.

A common thing.

Benjiko is a middle-aged man with a big belly. If he didn't know that this guy was not very clean, or just look at the cheerful smile on his face, he would really make uninformed people think that he is a kind businessman.

Benjiko happily touched his big belly, which was seven or eight months pregnant, and said with a smile: "They are not the indigenous people of Dia Star. They are loyal lovers of human culture. They not only like the products produced by us humans.

The little one also likes the frozen meat here."

"Sir, you also know that we don't like to eat things like frozen meat, because they are unhealthy and nutritious." Benjiko showed the unique shrewdness and cunning of a businessman. He winked at the squadron leader without any hesitation.

Covering up that he is a wicked businessman, he continued happily: "It is precisely because frozen meat is sold very cheaply here that we make money here. We don't have many people eating it, but Diaxing's

Those customers liked it very much, and were even willing to pay high prices for frozen meat. So this time I went to several frozen meat factories on the planets and almost bought them all, preparing to sell these frozen meats at high prices.

Sell ​​it to them, not only will they be happy, but it will also increase the income of our frozen meat factory, and I can also make profits from it. This is how everyone is happy."

The squadron leader had no expression on his face. He did not share the same joy as this black-hearted businessman. He just kept the records in a formal manner, then looked up at the team members who came off the merchant ship. After they approached, he went up to check them.

The team members gave him a questioning look.

Team member: "Everything has been checked and everything is normal."

Hearing this, Benjiko smiled cheerfully and said: "Although I am a bit evil-hearted, I am a serious businessman. Sirs, are you relieved now? Can the merchant ships below and below be able to pass?"

However, the squadron leader did not immediately let him go. Instead, he looked at his team members expressionlessly and asked again: "Has the freezer containing frozen meat been opened and inspected?"

The team members nodded one after another, "I have opened it and read it."

It was filled with neatly stacked frozen meat and nothing else.

After hearing this, the squadron leader put away the recorder in his hand, then turned to the communicator on his shoulder and said: "Get ready to release."

With the squadron leader's release order, Benjiko smiled and touched his belly again, nodded his gentlemanly thanks to them, and then turned around and walked back to the merchant ship.

The security fortress' checkpoint beeped several times, revealing the space wormhole inside.

The two large merchant ships restarted and slowly sailed into the space wormhole with bursts of roar.

at the same time------

Long Jiu, who was far away on the desert star, took the opportunity to knock out a wanderer who ran to a hidden corner to relieve himself, and then returned to the aircraft carrying the person like a ball of rags.

Long and Jiu couldn't figure out where the hostages were hidden, so they simply brought someone back to question them.

After she came back with the person in her arms, she threw the person on the ground with a black hand, took the water cup from the side very unceremoniously, and poured the water in the cup directly on the person's face.

A glass of cold water was thrown down and the person was immediately awakened. However, before the person could react to what had happened, he took off the gun from his waist and put it against his head. He asked in a deep voice: "What happened?"

Where are the hostages you took?"

The man originally looked confused, but after she said these words, he suddenly woke up. He looked at the two people in front of him in horror, and found that he was no longer in the temporary base, and suddenly panicked.

Long Jiu didn't have the patience to watch him hesitate, so he opened the safety catch and said in a cold voice: "I'll give you three numbers. If you don't tell me, I'll shoot. Anyway, there are dozens of you, so I can kill them."

Just as you brought them out quietly, you can also bring out your accomplices quietly, and if you ask them one by one, there will always be someone willing to tell the truth at the risk of their own life."

This wanderer originally ran out for convenience, but after being threatened by Long Jiu, he immediately started to urinate, and then he peed directly from the fright.

Long Jiu's frozen face suddenly became extremely ugly. If she didn't want to make another trip, she would have just shot him.

The undisguised disgust and murderous look in her eyes immediately made the man tremble again. He said in horror: "Don't kill me, I say, I say! Those hostages are no longer in our hands. They were killed two days ago."

He was handed over to Benjiko by our leader."

Ge Yang was shocked when he heard this, "Give it to Benjiko? Aren't you the one who contacted Dauraf?"

The man shook his head quickly, "No, it was Benjiko. Benjiko and Dauraf teamed up to get our goods. Dauraf was only responsible for the cargo on the merchant ship, but Benjiko was responsible for smuggling the hostages there.

Alien territory.”

Probably because he was really killed by a shot, this man didn't dare to be vague at all in his explanation, "Our leader said, shouting in the east and west, we have caused too much trouble, and the leader said there is no guarantee that the Long family army will not be targeted.
